WASHINGTON (AP) - The chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee says the Bush administration may have broken the law if it ordered the CIA to conceal the existence of a counterterrorism program.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein says that CIA Director Leon Panetta told senators last month that Dick Cheney as vice president had ordered the program not be disclosed to Congress.
Feinstein says that Congress was kept in the dark and that, in her words, "that's something that should never, ever happen again."
